Brooks William Clark

In Loving Memory of Our Precious Son, Brooks William Clark With hearts shattered yet filled with endless love, we announce the birth and passing of our precious son, Brooks, who was born sleeping at 21 weeks on July 28th, 2026. From the moment we learned we were expecting Brooks, he was deeply loved and eagerly awaited. He brought joy into our family from the very beginning. We celebrated every milestone—the first heartbeat, each ultrasound, and every tiny flutter that reminded us he was growing. We dreamed about the day we would finally hold him, imagined the adventures we would share, and looked forward to watching him grow alongside his two older sisters, who already loved their baby brother so very much. Although Brooks’ time with us was far too short, his life was filled with love. During his 21 weeks, he made us smile, gave us hope, and reminded us how precious life truly is. He was prayed over, talked to, and treasured every single day. He knew only the warmth of from inside mom's belly, the sound of our voices, and the unconditional love of his family. Brooks made us a family of five. He will always be the little brother his sisters will carry in their hearts, and he will always be our beloved son. Though we will never see him take his first steps, hear his laughter, or watch him grow, we are forever grateful for the time we had with him and for the love he brought into our lives. Brooks is survived by his loving parents, Evan Clark & Shannon Daniell, his two adoring older sisters, Delaney & Landrie, his grandparents, extended family, and countless loved ones who were excited to welcome him into the world. His life, though measured in weeks, will be remembered for a lifetime. A private service will be held to honor Brooks and the beautiful impact he had on our family. We ask that those who remember him keep our family in their thoughts and cherish the moments they have with those they love. Our sweet Brooks, you were wanted beyond words, loved beyond measure, and will be missed for all of our days. You will forever be a part of our family, and your tiny footprints will remain on our hearts always. Forever our son. Forever a little brother. Forever loved. Mitchell-Jerdan Funeral Home, 1200 Wabash Avenue, Mattoon, IL 61938 is in charge of arrangements.
